Take your taste buds on a bold, savory adventure with Garlic Shrimp with Wasabi Mayonnaise—a dish that blends sizzling shrimp with a kick of creamy heat. Succulent, pan-seared shrimp are infused with the rich flavors of garlic, olive oil, and a touch of seasoning, creating a perfectly crispy, golden finish. The star of the show, however, is the tangy wasabi mayonnaise, made from a luscious combination of mayonnaise, wasabi paste, zesty lemon juice, and a splash of soy sauce, offering a perfect balance of savory and spicy. Ready in just 25 minutes, this easy-to-make seafood recipe is ideal as an elegant appetizer or a crowd-pleasing main course. Served with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color, it’s a show-stopping dish that’s both sophisticated and packed with flavor.
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp to remove excess moisture.
In a medium-sized bowl, toss the shrimp with minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Set aside while preparing the dipping sauce.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, lemon juice, and soy sauce until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary).
Sear the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are fully cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve the garlic shrimp warm alongside the wasabi mayonnaise dipping sauce. Enjoy!
